Lovely home, close to area attractions

The house is quite nice with a large living room, a bright and well-equipped kitchen, and 2 nice sized bedrooms. We enjoyed walking the few blocks to the business area where there were several restaurants, wine merchants, and shops. Pavillions, a good sized grocery store is a bit of a walk or an easy drive, and had everything we needed for our brief stay. Kerry was communicative and welcoming. During our stay, we hiked, went to the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden, shopped and ate in SB and went to the old, but still operating SB Courthouse. We would definitely stay again if in the area.

As advertised. Excellent accommodation and really great location. Butterfly beach is a fascinating place for walking and watching the whole neighborhood exercising their amazing variety of dogs. The bike/walking path next to tai Warner’s estate is the most beautiful display of flora we have found anywhere in our many trips to the Santa Barbara area. We spent 3 weeks here and really enjoyed it. Kerry and Geonine are very easy to work with. Mike and Linda Bigley

Home away from home

I would highly recommend, the only complaint I have was our stay was too short. It's a perfect location, the home had all the amenities we needed. We brought our 11 year old blind dog and the back yard was so perfect for him. I hope to come back again.

All about location....

This property was clean and attractive....but the five star draw is the location. Minutes from the beach and a beautiful walk along the coast, and minutes from the main street in Montecito with excellent restaurants and shops.

Wonderful Choice in Montecito

What a delightful place in a prime Montecito location! The owners, who couldn’t be nicer, have done a beautiful job—the furnishings were elegant, the linens were luxurious, and the kitchen was well-appointed. The backyard was where we spent much time in ideal weather. This is a happy place, and we hope to return for another stay soon!

This was perfect for my husband and me and our dog. The little patio was nice )though it didn’t get much use with 4 days of rain). Liked being able to walk to the ocean and Montecito Village. It had everything we needed.

Great vacation

The property is exactly as described. A quick 5 minute walk to the beach. And easy access to downtown Montecito. The house had everything we needed to be comfortable. The backyard was perfect for our dog. The owners were upstairs but have a separate driveway and entry to their home. We saw them twice during our one week stay (very briefly). Easy communication with the owners. We would definitely stay here again.

standout location; everything necessary included, mediocre furnishings, train noise, poor yard y

the location was worth it, quite expensive for the caliber of furnishings, dirt yard, etc., but all needed items were provided. The owner was pleasant and accommodating, lived upstairs.

Comfort & Hospitality with neighborhood charm

Our family loves staying at this perfectly appointed property and have stayed here twice now with plans on returning . What is special about it is the spaciousness and nicely decorated rooms including very comfortable beds and linens . The kitchen is stocked with all one needs to barbecue in the shaded back yard on elegant patio furniture . It’s a 4 min walk to beautiful Butterfly Beach and 10 min walk to Montecito’s farmers market . When staying here you really feel like a local nestled in a quite charming neighborhood . I would highly recommend this property
